Hi,
I have two columns, each one of them has a list in each row of certain values. I want to compare the two columns and show which values in the second column are not present in the first. The following is an exaple:
I have managed to do this in Power Query, but I find it very messy. I've spent hours now trying to create a calculated column to do this, but I've had no success.
Solved! Go to Solution.
let
Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WMjDUMTDSMTBW0oExTZRidYDiIJaOgSlIHCSvY2CmFBsLAA==", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [Column1 = _t, Column2 = _t]),
#"Added Diff" = Table.AddColumn(Source, "Diff", each Text.Combine(List.Difference(Text.Split([Column2],","), Text.Split([Column1],",")),","))
in
#"Added Diff"
Expertise = List.Accumulate( {Days as from Today}, {Skills and Knowledge}, (Current, Everyday) => Current & Day.LearnAndPractise(Everyday) ) |
let
Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WMjDUMTDSMTBW0oExTZRidYDiIJaOgSlIHCSvY2CmFBsLAA==", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [Column1 = _t, Column2 = _t]),
#"Added Diff" = Table.AddColumn(Source, "Diff", each Text.Combine(List.Difference(Text.Split([Column2],","), Text.Split([Column1],",")),","))
in
#"Added Diff"
Expertise = List.Accumulate( {Days as from Today}, {Skills and Knowledge}, (Current, Everyday) => Current & Day.LearnAndPractise(Everyday) ) |
